Yoshi No Gawa Kome Dake No Sake 'Classic' Junmai Sake- 300 ml

Introduction

Produced in Japan, this authentic Junmai sake originates from the Niigata prefecture, a region celebrated for its pristine water and premium rice. Yoshi No Gawa, founded in 1548, stands as the oldest sake brewery in the renowned Niigata region and represents over 470 years of brewing expertise. The brewery's philosophy focuses on traditional techniques and the use of local ingredients, specifically water from the 'Tenka-ama-no-mizu' (Heavenly Gift Water) spring and locally grown rice, to produce sake of exceptional purity.

This 'Classic' Junmai presents a crystal clear appearance in the glass. The nose is clean and inviting, offering subtle aromas of steamed rice, toasted cereal, and a delicate touch of honeyed citrus. On the palate, the sake is smooth and well balanced, delivering rich flavours of creamy rice and subtle nuttiness, complemented by a light, refreshing acidity. It possesses a medium body and a soft mouthfeel, leading to a clean, dry finish that is characteristic of the Niigata brewing style.
